effect game hard
It hard to tell. In one game it's hard to make an assessment, but he still has that same presence, still has that same effect on the game.
fifth ground guys hard hard-work realized striking tired
I was tired (in the fifth). Striking a lot of guys out is hard work. I realized in the fifth I didn't have a lot of ground outs.
dress fair form gave great grief hard less nowadays played teammates three
We gave him grief about everything. We always got on him about his physique, which is less than intimidating. How he'd dress sometimes. All that stuff. He was fair game. He played the game, and he gave it back. That was part of the great thing there, for the three of us to be able to be teammates as long as we were, to form a great friendship. Nowadays in baseball, that's hard to do.
bit certainly harder hurts needed point win year
This probably hurts a little bit more now at this point in the year for us. We certainly needed to win this game. It's only making things harder for us.
argue hard
It's hard to argue that it's slowed down the salaries a little bit,
age age-and-aging difficult hard offensive stay win
I think it's just getting to be an increasingly difficult thing to do in the day and age we're in now, ... More than anything else now, I think it's just the offensive explosion. It's so hard to stay in there and win games.
brought built glimpse guys indication today
I think we got a glimpse of why we brought in the guys we did and what they can give us. Today was an indication of how we were built and what we can do.
ease mind players using
I think we need to do everything we can to put everyone's mind at ease about players using steroids,
guys point time variation
I think a lot of guys at some point and time show some variation of that pitch.
bit easier enjoy expected focus team win
I think it was a little bit easier to enjoy yourself and just focus more on getting better. If you're on a team that's expected to win you have to produce, and that's a whole lot different situation.
finish
I think it was important for us to finish strong,
looked road trip
I think we all looked at this road trip as an important trip, and it's more important now,
capable feeling good league monster putting
I think there was always a feeling that offensively, he was capable of putting up monster numbers. He's always put up pretty good numbers, but I think there was always a sense with him that there was more to come. To me, he's probably the MVP of the league right now.
guys pitch
With all the guys in our lineup, you have to pitch to somebody.
